Cinder is a Block Storage service for OpenStack. It's designed to present
|
|
storage resources to end users that can be consumed by the OpenStack Compute
|
|
Project (Nova). This is done through the use of either a reference
|
|
implementation (LVM) or plugin drivers for other storage. The short
|
|
description of Cinder is that it virtualizes the management of block storage
|
|
devices and provides end users with a self service API to request and consume
|
|
those resources without requiring any knowledge of where their storage is
|
|
actually deployed or on what type of device.
